Mini dwarf fruit tree Apple tree - Malus domestica

Care

• Temperature: Generally, apple trees have a greater need for cold than most other deciduous fruit trees and can tolerate lower temperatures in winter, but once temperatures drop below -5ºC, it can damage tree tissues and affect future production.
• Light: In general, it prefers full sun for most of the day. It requires full sun for at least 6 hours a day for optimal development and adequate fruit production.
• Watering: It needs regular watering during its active growing season, keeping the soil moist but not soggy. In autumn, watering can be gradually reduced, adapting it to the climatic conditions.
• Manuring: It requires a balanced and adequate fertiliser to provide the necessary nutrients for its growth and fruit production with a fruit tree fertiliser. Especially in spring and summer.
• Transplanting: If you want to grow it in a pot, it is recommended to transplant the apple tree to a larger pot every few years to prevent its roots from becoming too tight and restricting its growth. If transplanting is not desired, growth should be controlled by pruning.

Please note

.
• Apple trees should preferably be pruned during the winter, when the tree is in its dormant period, to remove dead, diseased or crossing branches, and to encourage healthier growth and better fruit production.

Available sizes

* The size indicated is indicative. It is an approximate height calculated by averaging the height of several specimens. As living beings, each plant has its own shape and growth rate and, therefore, the measurement cannot be taken as exact.

* Some plants that have flowers and/or fruits may not have them at the time of purchase. Since flowering, fruit production and even foliage production is seasonal, it may be the case that the time of purchase does not coincide with these flowering or fruiting periods, which does not imply that the plant has a defect or deficiency.
